CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We listened to a bunch of music today that I listened to in high school.  It’s great music and often brings back memories of the trouble I got into as a kid.  Therefore the BOM was quoted from Ecclesiastes chapters 11-12.  Basically it talks about the fact that men will enjoy the time of their youth, however we also need to be aware that we will ultimately be held accountable for our actions.  The only way to avoid this judgement is to accept Christ as your personal savior and let his death, burial and resurrection take the place of your punishment.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I told the PAX about the program I have been watching on Amazon called World War II in HD. It was a phenomenal program that really changed the way I thought about our history and the men and women that served our country during that time. I shared with them some stats on the number of casualties during World War II and the millions of people that died as a result of evil men. The sacrifice that they gave to protect the innocent and save our world was  unbelievable.  It made me think about the small sacrifices that we need to make on a daily basis for others.. weather it be our family, our friends, or even complete strangers.

Watch WWII in HD, it will change you.

MOLESKIN:
The pax was pretty quiet today except the occasional massive fart from Sparky. Aladdin for 2nd time but there was no tag yet for him on site.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

How do we learn best?
By reading instructions or by watching how it is done by someone that knows the process?
Are we a study God’s word culture or are we a do God’s word culture? By doing rather that studying, we develop a culture that newcomers and the young feed off of. They learn by watching the faithful not by studying.
Lets go be a “Do God’s word” and not just a “study God’s word”

MOLESKIN:

Welcome Mic Drop from Nolensville TN.  He will be “dropping” by once or twice a month.

We went from mist, to rain, to sleet, to snow today.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I was recently caught up thinking about my own “problems” when an acquaintance mentioned that he was heading to a doctor’s appointment to find out whether or not his daughter’s cancer was in remission. I was immediately reminded that I have no real problems in my life and should be more diligent about counting my blessings instead of worrying about the little stuff. It was a great reminder to maintain a positive perspective.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Short and sweet today.  Question:  Is the culture in your workplace the way you want it to be?   If not…what are you doing to change it?

MOLESKIN:

Cosmo pointed out that we may have set an F3 record of sorts….we didn’t do any merkins!  It wasn’t intentional, but that’s how it worked out.   Does it really count as an F3 beatdown if you don’t do any merkins??
